Here's my 10 minute front plate removal method with 90 degree pliers, string and googone. 1) The pliers loosened the underlip screws in seconds, and finished off with your fingers. I used these > https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YQ7RS1M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 2) Then using a very long piece of string slipped between the plate and nose, dangle it long enough on each side to step on it. Add tension with your feet and a few of your favorite dances moves, and the string will slice through the thick gunk with the plate frame falling to the ground. 3. Rub off the gunk chunks with your fingers and let googone handle the residual. EZ PZ 1-2-3

Picked it up!
My DS Jaycee did a great job explaining and answering all my questions.
The car is great and of course is super fast, even without the Insane mode activated.
I tried Autopilot and Navigation on the way to Appearance Solution in Sacramento for my XPel and tint. Nice.
Normal stereo seemed more than adequate for my old ears.
Let's see.... I received the usual swag which is very appreciated. I did not get a look at the battery SN. No back seat cup holders.
Obsidian Black is nice... has a nice sparkle to it, which has a moderate amount of blue in it. You might see it in the picture below.
Here are some quick photos....
YAY Tesla!

Thanks for sharing! Are your seats next gen grey with black headliner? Just curious because I got white exterior with pano roof and all black interior... and I am having second thoughts that I should have gone for the two tone grey/black interior look. Can you post some interior pics?
